The Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu in a statement has broken silence over blockage of food and water into Gaza.

Recall Israel has blocked the entry of medical, food and fuel supplies into Gaza since the start of March, prompting international experts to warn of looming famine in the besieged enclave that is home to 2.3 million Palestinians.

according to a recent report by the UN’s Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), Half a million people in the Gaza Strip, or one in five Palestinians, are facing starvation. The entire rest of the population is suffering from high levels of acute food insecurity,

However the Israel P.M releases analysis backing his claim of having send more than enough food into Gaza, but the relief was said to have been stolen by the Hamas terrorist group who sold it and use the proceed to purchase weapons.

According to Netanyahu on Thursday night: “Since October 7th, Israel has sent 92,000 aid trucks into Gaza. That’s right. 92,000 aid trucks. That includes 1.8 million tons of aid. 1.8 million tons of aid – more than enough food to feed everyone in Gaza.

“Yet as we had let the aid come in, Hamas stole it. They took a huge chunk for themselves. The rest they sold at exorbitant prices to the Palestinian population.

“And then they used the money they stole to recruit new terrorists to continue their war against Israel.”

He further revealed that the country aim is to get food to the civilians in an established safe zone with the help of the U.S and conduct combat in other places, stating that 100 trucks has been let in to the country.

The P.M as well apologized for Israeli soldiers shooting at a European delegation comprising of 30 diplomats from 26 different countries on Wednesday in Jenin, thanking God that there was no fatality, as the country only target terrorist and not diplomats.

His post read further: “Our goal from the start was to get food to Palestinian civilians, not to Palestinian terrorists.

“So we consulted with our American allies: what do we do to prevent Hamas from looting the aid? Well, together we devised a mechanism to achieve this goal.

“American companies will distribute the food directly to Palestinian families. They’ll do so in safe zones secured by our military. And this will allow us to complete our goal of destroying Hamas while enabling aid to reach the civilian population.

“We’ll complete the construction of the first distribution zones in the coming days.

“Ultimately, we intend to have large safe zones in the south of Gaza. The Palestinian population will move there for their own safety, while we conduct combat in other zones, and receive humanitarian aid there without Hamas interference.

“In the meantime, we authorized letting trucks enter Gaza to provide for immediate needs. Yesterday I think 100, more than 100 trucks went in. More will come in today.

“I tell you this: no army in the world has ever gone to such lengths to provide aid to the civilian population in the midst of intense combat. And Hamas of course, opposes this.

“It shoots Palestinian civilians who want to leave for safe zones and it shoots Palestinian civilians who want to prevent Hamas terrorists from looting the aid trucks intended for them.

“As for the hostages, we’ll do every effort to secure them. I’m ready for a temporary ceasefire to get more out but we demand, and you should demand, that all of our hostages be released and released immediately. And so should every civilized country demand this.

“We’re in an intense seven front war that was launched against us by Iran and its proxies. Sometimes in war accidents happen.

“One such incident happened the other day in Jenin. And thankfully no one was hurt. Our military has expressed its regret over the event because we don’t target civilians or diplomats. We target terrorists.

“Exactly the opposite of Hamas. They target civilians, ours, and they hide behind civilians, theirs. They use them as human shields. That’s a double war crime. But I don’t hear that coming from anyone of those countries that criticize Israel.

“For those who say that Israel stands alone, I say we’re not alone. Justice stands with us. The truth stands with us. History stands with us.

“And I especially want to thank President Trump and the American people for their forthright stand with Israel and with the Jewish people.

“Together we stand. Together we’ll triumph and will see the victory of civilization over barbarism.” He concluded.
